Question
Which of the following statements is true?
Study the following information carefully and answer the question given below: Seven friends X to H celebrated their birthday on different dates of same month. The date of the month is consecutive multiple of 4. X celebrated his birthday immediately before E. Neither F nor G celebrated their birthday on 28th of the month. The difference between the days of G and E to celebrate their birthday is 12. No one celebrated their birthday between Y and F, who celebrated his birthday after Y. At most two people celebrated their birthday after G. Z celebrated his birthday after H, who doesn’t celebrate his birthday before X.Solution
At most two people celebrated their birthday after G. Neither F nor G celebrated their birthday on 28th of the month. The difference between the days of G and E to celebrate their birthday is 12. X celebrated his birthday immediately before E. No one celebrated their birthday between Y and F, who celebrated his birthday after Y. Z celebrated his birthday after H, who doesn’t celebrate his birthday before X. From above statements, Case-1 : Here G and E celebrated their birthday on 20th and 8th of the month respectively. X celebrated his birthday on 4th of the month. Y and F celebrated their birthday on 12th and 16th of the month respectively. Finally, H and Z celebrated their birthday on 24th and 28th of the month respectively. Thus all the given condition gets satisfied and we get the completed arrangement in Case- Case-2: Here G and E celebrated their birthday on 24th and 12th of the month respectively. X celebrated his birthday on 8th of the month. Y and F celebrated their birthday on 16th and 20th of the month respectively. As per last reference point, H doesn’t celebrate his birthday before X. Thus there is no other date left for H. Thus this case-2 becomes invalid and it can be eliminated.
